Jerry Lee Lewis headed to Third Man Records

When Jack White plans a Record Store Day celebration, he really pulls out all the stops.

The April 16 shindig at White's Third Man Records is scheduled to feature rock 'n' roll icon Jerry Lee Lewis, Lewis' press folks announced Monday, and fans can expect a White-produced Lewis record to be made during the visit, too.

For the performance/recording, Lewis will be backed by an all-star band: legendary guitarist Steve Cropper and drummer Jim Keltner, with White's Dead Weather/Raconteurs compatriot Jack Lawrence on bass. The recording is expected to go on sale within weeks of the event.

Other special Third Man treats planned for Record Store Day: a new single from Karen Elson, featuring a cover of Lou Reed's "Vicious" backed with Elson original "In Trouble With the Lord" (the release will be on clear vinyl with hand-inserted, peach-colored rose petals locked inside); two White Stripes reissues -- their first release, "Let’s Shake Hands"/"Look Me Over Closely," and second, "Lafayette Blues"/"Sugar Never Tasted So Good"; and the debut offering from Danger Mouse and Daniele Luppi's Rome collaboration with Jack White and Norah Jones, "Two Against One" with "Black." (Those Rome tunes will also appear on the full-length, due out May 17.)

Fans will be able to pick up those releases at Third Man and other independent record stores.

Jerry Lee Lewis' show is set to close out Third Man's Record Store Day celebration -- doors open for that show at 4 p.m., the show beginning at 5. Tickets run $30, and are expected to go on sale at noon on Tuesday, April 5 via Third Man's physical location in Nashville (623 7th Ave. S.) and at ThirdManRecords.com.

Third Man's overall Record Store Day festivities begin at 11:30 a.m. on Saturday, April 16.
